After 3 years of nothin', our little apricot tree has produced fruit! We finally planted it in the ground last fall, and after many months of wondering if it would make it, it started to green up. Its had many obsticals to overcome - mainly, we kept the poor thing in a pot for 2 years and rarely watered it. Its also lived through many a wind storms, in said pot; as well as being chewed on by a dog, to not be named, and even beat up by the neighborhood kids a few times. The 10 or so apricots have actually tasted pretty good - and I think Emma liked the fact that they were a cute little Emma-sized fruit she could eat all by herself.

Wow, those grew fast, they were just the size of an acorn when I was there. Hopefully next year they will produce more than a dozen.
How I love my girl! Grandma B
